Wicked Thieves

Make a bargain, or let the shadows consume you. Which will it be?

In the frostbitten kingdom of Elvir, Anelize Yarrow has spent her life as an apothecary in her father's shop, tending to those struggling with an ever-growing, unexplained malady and determined to find a cure that will put a stop to it for good. That changes the night she rescues a mysterious, wounded stranger with eyes the colour of starlight — a decision with consequences, because she is hunted down, and the wicked threads of dark magic wind tightly around her very soul, stealing the one thing she cares about most.

With time slipping through her fingers, Anelize has no choice but to set off in search of answers if she wants to lift the curse laid on her. Even if that means allying herself with the person responsible for plunging her into darkness in the first place.

Wicked Thieves is Rose Marie's adult fantasy debut — she describes it as a vicious yet whimsical dark fantasy — and the first book of the Weaver's Reckoning duology. It was self-published in January 2026.
